Murthi pooja is not relevant to study of language.  He teaches the language.  If you don't know, then don't make blanket claims or justifications.

I don’t think he has to chant mantras and worship deities as a language professor of Sanskrit .

 

I don’t see anything wrong with this. 
 

if Some of the patron of the art type Hindus  can adore Urdu why can’t a Muslim take up and learn Sanskrit. It’s a step in the right direction.

A language is just that - language.  This is not a class on theology.  Any student and devotee of Saraswati would or ought to know - Gnaana is enriched by diversity, not by hoarding.  

 

This sort of exclusionary attitude does not light the way of learning.  

The appointment is for Dharm Vigyan faculty where only Hindus were allowed because of religious studies and teaching involved, why do you want Hindus to cow down while accepting the fact that no non-Muslim can’t teach religious texts in a madrassa? And they are also peacefully protesting, and you still call them goons? 

 

Who makes RSS to decide on pan-Hindu matters?

Dr Shanti Lal Salvi (eminent Sanskrit prof at BHU) was attacked by students for supporting the appointment. These students are a disgrace, why is the uni administration being so meek? During my stay in college there would be disciplinary action for far less transgressions. Is this our culture? Mata, Pita, Guru, Daivam and all that, how are these students emboldened to behave like ruffians with their Gurus? Thugs...

I owe my Padma Shri award to 'gau seva': Bhajan singer Ramzan Khan

Bhajan singer Ramzan Khan, who has been awarded the Padma Shri, has given the credit for the honour to the 'gau seva' he has been doing for the past 15 years at his village Bagru near here.

Khan and his dedication to cows and Krishna-bhakti came into the limelight amid a row which erupted over the appointment of his son Feroze Khan as assistant professor at Banaras Hindu University (BHU) in November last year.

"I had never imagined even in my dreams that I will be chosen for this coveted award. I have spent most of my time doing 'gau seva' for the past 15-16 years in a gaushala besides singing bhajans. I believe this award is the result of 'gau seva'," Khan told PTI.

"Serving cows and singing bhajans are an integral part of my daily routine. Singing is my family tradition. Like me, my son Feroze too wanted to learn Sanskrit and therefore I got him admission in school. He was appointed as assistant professor in BHU which was a big achievement," he said.

A follower of Islam, Khan not only goes to mosques and offers the namaz but also holds the degree of 'Shashtri' in Sanskrit language, composes and sings bhajans, dedicatedly performs 'gau seva' at the gaushala.

He attends the evening aarti and sings religious songs while playing the harmonium in the temple of Shree Ramdev Gaushala Chetanya Dham, Bagru, where people turn up to listen to him.
